Planned Spontaneity

Oh there’s nothing so grand as planned spontaneity 
Even in the most dour it’ll bring about some gaiety 
The preparation for an impulsive act
Is the thing what will attract 
Yes there’s nothing so grand as planned spontaneity.

There’s even a government department you see
For planned spontaneity 
They’ll work for months in advance 
Preparing acts of chance
Yes there’s nothing so grand as planned spontaneity.

So you see it’s not Murphy’s Law
It’s been all worked out before 
When things turn to sh**
The scenario was already well writ
Oh there’s nothing so grand as planned spontaneity.
